Description
Content description from NYT Archives (https://www.nytimes.com/1984/10/11/arts/dance-erick-hawkins-permiere-at-the-joyce.html) :
IT has been so easy in recent decades to think of Erick Hawkins as a choreographer and dancer with a special affinity for both Asian and American Indian philosophies that one forgets how rousingly down-home he can really be.
But last night at the Joyce Theater, the world premiere of a pungently stated dance-theater piece, ''The Joshua Tree, or Three Outlaws'' and the revival of his ''Hurrah!'' - a heartwarming ode to Middle Western nostalgia set to a festive score by Virgil Thomson - recalled Mr. Hawkins's firm roots in dance Americana.
